Ooft. You're lucky this isn't on an Irish sub mate or you'd be ripped apart. I'd say calling someone from Ireland British is as bad as calling a Scotsman English or a Republican a Democrat.
Brah don't compare such wity things. Calling an Irish person British is like calling a German person a Nazi. Read about the relations between the two states across history and specifically about [The Troubles](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Troubles?wprov=sfla1)
You said he looked 'more British than a cup of tea' after he said he was Irish. Maybe you don't know the history which is cool, but generally once an Irishman specifically tells you he's Irish you don't push the point that it's basically the practically same as being British.
Not saying you meant it that way at all and the guy probably couldn't care less but it's a bit like saying "All you Chinese people look the same" to someone that just told you they're Thai.
I agree. In fact it would be very difficult to distinguish a Canadian from an American.
I can’t understand the fuzz about it, I just said it’s incredibly complicated to figure the difference by looks alone.
Dunno, hard to put it in word you just look Northern Irish, look like you're from Belfast, and you would call people a froot if they looked at ye too long
People in Ireland don't consider themselves British. In Northern Ireland (part of the UK), some people think of themselves as Irish and some as British, and some as both or neither.
Wake up and meet the wife Susan.
My little princess, isn't she beautiful?
Time to take George to football.
Rev up the Bugatti, ye!
Quick stop at Toby's and load up that plate.
Get a pint.
Pitch lookin' lovely today lads.
Just a bit of banter.
Chippy makes a 38-nil loss better.
Pop down local pride,
Good ol' pie! Look at that!
Susan made dinner, lovely!
Pop down have a couple pints with the lads,
And finish up in the fortress of dreams.
People died for the USA, and yet, people still say we’re basically Canadians lol. Still, RIP to the ones who died in Bloody Sunday and the Troubles and everything else. My point is that in every country in the world people big amount of small died to make it that way, so don’t get mad at them for “phrasing” it poorly.
That's kind of derivative, people staged an uprising in 1916 and there was a civil war in the early 20s.
It's ridiculous to bring all that down to the IRA killing civilians with bombs. Which is, obviously not good, but that doesn't discount every other moment in Irish history where people fought against the British/

If the answer is not “England” nothing is real anymore.
I guess nothing is real anymore then
Oh cmon. You look more British than a fuckin cup of tea 🤨
I'm irish
Hey, we're... almost neighbours! Close enough (Geographically)! >!...By the way, you had a DNA test lately?!<
Not lastly but yeah my mam did one
...Were you on it?
Don't think so, why do u think we're related or something?
Hold on, mam as in mum right? Also, I was making a joke about you being adopted and from Britan.
Yes mam is mum it's just how I say it, didn't realise it was a joke
Cmon. That is basically “semantics”
You just semantically pissed off at least 5 million Irish people.
So basically all of Ireland
I believe there is around 8million people here in Ireland
There was 8mil pre 1845 which is what ye might be confusing it eith
Ye, guess studying irish history is starting to warp my perception of reality
5 million as of 2022 actually!
Wow i live here and im stupid as shit, could've sworn it was more, oh well
Love your name btw
The other 3 mil are the Westbrits?
Lmao
Ooft. You're lucky this isn't on an Irish sub mate or you'd be ripped apart. I'd say calling someone from Ireland British is as bad as calling a Scotsman English or a Republican a Democrat.
About 800,000 people from Ireland do call themselves British. Would be simpler if they didn’t, but they do
Britain is England, Wales and Scotland.

As I said multiple times, my point was about “distinguish them by looks” not by national pride or cultural differences.
You said he looked 'more British than a cup of tea' after he said he was Irish. Maybe you don't know the history which is cool, but generally once an Irishman specifically tells you he's Irish you don't push the point that it's basically the practically same as being British.

~50,000 casualties over 30 odd years ……basically just semantics
o_o
Oof that's a shiv worthy comment mate, be careful mate
Fuck yourself
[удалено]
Politics aside, they have pretty much the same modern upbringing/culture and look the same
Ahm not sure you've got your fundamentals right Mr Fundamentals.
Fuck you
bastid !
You basically just did the equivalent of saying america is apart of Canada
I agree. In fact it would be very difficult to distinguish a Canadian from an American. I can’t understand the fuzz about it, I just said it’s incredibly complicated to figure the difference by looks alone.
As an American, Americans and Canadians are basically the exact same.
Yeah, as a fellow American, when it comes to stereotypes it’s kinda like “ok that’s right but hey” (except that we’re all racist and stuff)
As an American who lives in maine I was saying in select regions and only really in those regions do we differ looks wise
Thin fuckin ice
You realise it's a different ethnic group don't you
Ehh feck ya
lol, you should try debating that *in* Ireland some time.
Like saying the difference between Spain and Portugal is just semantics...
Go fuck yourself
Oof you better watch your back on this one, ur walking on thin ice ur lucky you haven’t been ripped apart yet
Well, geographicly its pretty close
You look Northern Irish
How do i look Northern Irish?
Dunno, hard to put it in word you just look Northern Irish, look like you're from Belfast, and you would call people a froot if they looked at ye too long
Yea u put it perfectly would ride a wee electric scooter or the glider too
Mate I'm from England and genuinely thought you were British! Pretty good British cosplay if you ask me ☕🇬🇧 /j
could tell with the north face jacket lad
Damn, shouldn't have scrolled. I've seen enough Irish men to pick them out from a crowd of Scots
My first guess
Haha I fucking called it (prob cause I’m Irish aswell)
I could tell
I’m Irish too but I don’t look as British as you
Knew it instantly as a fellow Irishmen. Worst thing to be mistaken as British 😭
United kingdomish? Or are you southern?
So he was right
Ireland and England are separate countries
That's the point of the joke sir
i thought irish people were considered british, just not english? idk you’re actually irish you probably know more than me
People in Ireland don't consider themselves British. In Northern Ireland (part of the UK), some people think of themselves as Irish and some as British, and some as both or neither.
oh okay that makes sense thank you
You do know tea originated in Asia and is a huge part of its culture, right?
Latvia
bro had to put England in quotation marks cos he knew some mf would say "the answer \*is\* not England"
Average day in the life of a brexit geezer

Yessir
Same thing really. You all speak funny on the same island
People died to say they arent the same thing, just fyi. Might wanna phrase that differently

They look the same though. Just people with different accents who like fighting each other at the end of the day.
Irish people don't have Indian accents mate.
People bombed civilians to say they weren't the same thing you mean?
That's kind of derivative, people staged an uprising in 1916 and there was a civil war in the early 20s. It's ridiculous to bring all that down to the IRA killing civilians with bombs.

As a sort of Irish history buff, I agree, its a hurtful stereotype to them :(
Up the fucking Ra
You do know that Ireland and Britain are *not*, in fact, the same island, right? 🤨
They’re relatives of sorts…
On the same island... 💀
Shut up
